i saw this quote high up in front of the drop off point in my sibling's punggol temporary high school.. "Life's our passion, Love's our calling" and i wonder.. is it? i guess so.. but how do we define life? love? all sums up to being happiness during a journey?
was reading some quotes from my book to my mom a few days back.. and i can tell u sharing is good.. the feeling is great.. and i realised that certain quotes i've forgotten about them.. until i read it to my mom..
i got this from one magazine... female, cleo or sth else.. cant remember.. and tt time when i visited my grandpa in GH, i came across it in one of the mag on the browsing shelves.. and saw that same quote..
"Because we know them,
We know their weaknesses.
And when we'ree angry or upset,
We jab at precisely the right spot,
Sticking it in deep so it hurts.
The greater our love,
The greater the potential to hurt.
Love is perfect,
But people are not."
wonderful isnt it? a simple passage that sums up everything about why the one we love most hurts us the deepest.
happened to browse thru blogs and saw monique's.. and i wanna elaborate on the ending of her blog entry..
"men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened."
u know i used to keep telling myself things will never be the same again? and when a person reached a point in time where free falling hits constant velocity and u go straight down and hit the core of that bottomless pit, sth amazing will happen.. dont u know it? it did, to me.
constantly in reflective mode during exam period. guess that huge void in my mind makes thinking about rubbish easier.. and that "miracle" happened... suddenly i am contented.. in that moment, words suddenly came out of nowhere and filled me with contentment.. it's as if someone is telling me sth that i wanna hear..
[there is NO beginning so there is no end]
some people call it regrets, some people call that naive thinking.. what do i call it? i name that a miracle. that is the sth amazing.. u know sometimes u juz cant help feeling a certain way? it's sth unexplainable and all u can do is shrug..
was watching some jap show and the main character said that there is no miracle.. miracles come from things like love, courage, determination and so on.. it's the "heavier" side of all these qualities and feelings..
a few moew quotes to share before i post this entry..
[if you say sth bad abt someone, you will discover that the same criticism applies to you]
- that is SOOOOO true.. usually i dislike sth in a person that i think i cant stand it in me..
[the only faults that bother us in others are faults we share..]
- so before u start shooting nonsensical remarks abt things u dislike, think about it.. dont u have those exact or similar qualities that u hate? but well, we humans aint perfect, that's y we cant control.. right?
okie.. i'm gonna reach that "mature" point soon.. but it aint reall.. u cant juz change ur whole mind, perceptions, and all on that day when you turn 18.. if u're mature by nature, u are by age 3? and if u're childish, u still are by age 63.. it doesnt matter what age u are bcoz ultimately, it's all either 1) in ur genes, 2) caused my environemntal factors like cultural norms and social interactions, 3) situational factors..
and it's all beyond our control.. so quit saying that once u reach so-and-so-age, u are a grown up so muz stop acting like like what-and-how.. dots.. juz cant understand what those pple out there are thinking about..
anyway, another quote to share about age..
[common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.]
i guess i have to start collecting them real fast.. so i can have a larger collection..
AND THIS FINAL ONE IS FOR ALL THE LADIES OUT THERE....
[We women have managed to do so much with so little that society now expects us to create miracles out of nothing.]
